Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews. It's an opportunity for everyone to share the new books that we've acquired.
We went to the library last week and managed to stay within our 2-book borrowing limit, despite there being a ton of lovely new books on the shelves. Again. Going there is always an adventure because we know that we're bound to see at least one book that we've been dying to read sitting on the new arrivals shelf.
Ally's Books:

The Lost Prince by Julie KagawaBought:
Just One Day by Gayle FormanWhat did you add to your shelves this week? Please link us up!
I had Just One Day out from the library a while back, but couldn't get it read before it had to go back. I shall re-request it once the waitlist isn't so crazy long.
ReplyDeleteAnd I really want to read The Replacement after loving Paper Valentine! I have The Space Between out from the library right now and cannot wait to read it.
Happy reading to both of you!
My StS Post :)
I really enjoyed Paper Valentine, too, and definitely want to read more of Brenna Yovanoff's books. I hope you enjoy The Space Between!
DeleteJust One Day is supposed to be great, I'm looking forward to picking it up when I've tackled a few more of the books on my shelf. The Lost Prince was good, but I didn't enjoy it as much as the others in series.
ReplyDeleteThe Replacements I so want to read! I got it out of my library twice and each time I ran out of time when reading other books. I hate returning my books unread. Mind Games was a DNF for me :-/ I tried to like it because I enjoyed Paranormalcy, but I just didn't get into it.
Hope you enjoy your reads :)
I couldn't resist picking up Just One Day when I spotted it while out shopping. I'm really weak-willed like that sometimes, lol. I also hate returning library books unread and did so quite a few times last year, so I've put myself on a strict borrowing limit this year.
DeleteOh, interesting books girls & congrats on staying on board with the 2-book/week goal! The Replacements looks really great & I've heard good things about it! Ditto for Just One Day. Seeing the Lost Prince always makes me wish I was up to date on that Kagawa series :) Sweet haul, enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteI'm really excited to read Just One Day at last. I've been dying to since it came out, but I was trying to be good about waiting to buy it. I knew that if I saw it at a decent price, I'd grab it, and that's what happened.
DeleteI've heard a lot about Mind Games...hope you enjoy! I recently ordered a few books by Juile Kagawa, not sure about them yet though :)

I really loved Julie Kagawa's The Immortal Rules- can't wait for the sequel to be released!
DeleteSo looking forward to reading Mind Games!
ReplyDeleteAlly grabbed it as soon as she spotted it. It's on my TBR list, too, along with Paranormalcy.
DeleteI have Mind Games and Just One Day :)! I can't wait to read them both, especially Just One Day. Awesome haul :)

My Haul!
I can't wait to start Just One Day. I hope you enjoy it, too!
DeleteYou got Mind Games and Just One day! *squeal*
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your books! :)
When I saw Just One Day in the store, I knew that I wasn't going home without buying it. Gayle Forman is such an amazing writer!
DeleteThe Lost Prince! I just LOVE the cover. And I enjoyed reading Mind Games, although several other people didn't. Hopefully you'll enjoy reading it too.
ReplyDeleteMy STS
P.S. I want to steal your cute elephant Ally! <3
This was the first time that I saw The Lost Prince at the library. It was perfect timing because it's fey month for the Paranormal Reading Challenge, and that's the book I planned to read for it!
DeleteI really need to start reading some Gayle Forman books. I own If I Stay but it is gathering dust on a shelf.
ReplyDeleteI had not heard of The Replacement but read the description and it sounds really interesting. Adding it to my TBR list. Picking up an older book that is new to me, is my favorite part about going to the library (besides the fact that they give you books for free of course.)
I loved If I Stay and Where She Went. And I love browsing the library's shelves for books that I otherwise wouldn't have known about.
DeleteI enjoyed The Lost Prince and want to give The Replacement a try!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading! :)

I'm curious to see how The Lost Prince compares to the original Iron Fey series. Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
DeleteI've heard mixed about the Replacement, it seems like its the kind of book that you either love or hate, can't wait to see what you think :)

If it's anything like Paper Valentine, then Ally should enjoy it. I definitely want to read The Replacement, too.
DeleteI didn't really care for Mind Games. Heard good things about Julie Kagawa. Heard good things about Just One Day. Very nice indeed ladies.
ReplyDeleteGrace
I've been fighting the temptation to buy Just One Day since it was released, and at last, I caved in. Now I just have to find the time to read it.
DeleteAw, I love the elephant toy! And I hope Just One Day is a fantastic read!
ReplyDeleteI love Gayle Forman, and I've seen such glowing reviews of the book, so I'm all set to love it!
DeleteI didn't really enjoy Mind Games, but I hope you have much better luck with it.
ReplyDeleteThe Replacement and Just One Day however look really good. Happy reading guys! :)
Ally was really excited when she saw Mind Games at the library, so I hope it works out for her. I really liked Paper Valentine, so I think she should be happy with The Replacement.
DeleteI am just getting started on Iron Queen, but I do have Lost Prince waiting on me to get to...I hope you enjoy your hauls! Mind Games looks like it should be great :D Jaclyn @ JC's Book Haven
ReplyDeleteI liked The Iron Queen better than The Iron Daughter, but my overall favorite out of the series was the first book. I hope Ethan makes an interesting protagonist.
DeleteOooh Just One Day! I've been meaning to pick that up. I've heard nothing but praise for Gayle Forman's books. I read Mind Games and it was just "ok" for me. Has potential for a great series though. I hope you enjoy all your books this week ladies :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my post!
Lauren @ Lose Time Reading
I was wary of reading If I Stay because it's quite the tearjerker, but all of the positive reviews of it convinced me to try it. And I'm so glad I did because both that book and Where She Went were amazing.
DeleteJust One Day is a personal favourite of mine and I've been meaning to get my hands on Minds Games and The Lost Prince since I don't know when. Great haul you both. :)
ReplyDeleteI feel like one of the last people who hasn't gotten to Just One Day yet. I'm glad that won't be the case much longer!
DeleteI wasn't sure how I was going to like If I Stay because contemporaries and I don't always get along, but I ended up loving it. I hope Just One Day works out better for you if you decide to read it!
ReplyDeleteI've owned The Lost Prince for so long now. I'm working on some other books, but I know I'll have to get to it soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm very slowly working through all the books that have been lying around on my shelves unread for way too long. If I didn't set a library borrowing limit this year, I'd never get to them!
DeleteI'm actually reading Mind Games right now and I like it! I hope you do too! Thanks for dropping by on my StS too! :D Much love!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you're enjoying it so far! Seeing it at the library made Ally's day.
DeleteI adore the cover of Mind Games. I wish my library had the books you borrowed, I would be very happy!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading.
Nina@J'adore Happy Endings
We're very lucky with how often our library adds new books; we definitely couldn't afford to read as much as we do without it!
DeleteI loved the Lost Prince by Kagawa and I'm excited to read Mind Games! Enjoy!

Thanks! They've been on my TBR list for a while.
DeleteThe Replacement is one of my favorite paranormal novels! I loved the character relationships, especially. Hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI love how creepy the cover is. I really want to read it myself, as well as The Space Between.
DeleteThat little elephant is adorable. I loved Brenna Yovanoff's Paper Valentine. Can't wait to hear what you thought of The Replacement.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading :)
I loved Paper Valentine, too. I hope Ally decides to read that one as well.
DeleteI keep seeing The Lost Prince on posts, I feel like I should be checking it out! Looking forward to reading your review on it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by :)
Ashley @ The Quiet Concert
It's been on my TBR list for a while. I finally finished the original Iron Fey series, so at last I can read this!
DeleteI want to read Mind Games !
ReplyDeleteIt looks really intriguing. I'm eager to hear what Ally thinks of it!
DeleteI'm curious to see what you will think of Mind Games and The Replacements. And Just One Day <3 Oh, Lee, you're in for something good :) I hope you'll love it!
